Hello good people of this forum,
I've newly acquired a 2009 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion with 23000KMs which is pretty much the same as the good ole FZ6R
Seems to be alright so far and it does put a smile on my face every time I see it
However ,it does have one issue which is bugging me
The story goes ,when I'm starting off ,mostly when the engine is cold and start going trough the gears I usually shift a little earlier than your usual rider, say I shift from 1st to 2nd at 3K RPM
Sometimes ,although not always once I do shift from 1st to 2nd ,once I let off the clutch for 2nd the RPMs drop all the way to idle and the bike displays heavy engine breaking and twisting the throttle doesnt seem to get the revs back up ,this lasts for about a second or two ,but just enough to bust my nuts on the gas tank due to the above mentioned heavy breaking
I've also noticed this going from 2nd to 3rd and the issue is so far excluded only to low RPMs
Is anyone familiar with this behaviour?
